About
SNORING AND SLEEP APNOEA
Recent research, supported by clinical experience, demonstrates that exercises and certain lifestyle practices can be game-changers for individuals with disordered breathing. These exercises offer a significant reduction in the severity of sleep-disordered breathing, making them an effective therapy option to establish closed mouth posture, strengthen tongue muscles, and correct breathing patterns. Sleep-disordered breathing encompasses mouth breathing, snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS), and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), each with specific symptoms and potential health implications. This program provides relief for issues such as sleep apnoea, snoring, and mouth breathing, ensuring a good night's rest without these hindrances.
CHILD FUNCTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
The child development program is centered around addressing poor sleep, orthodontics, and detrimental habits like thumb sucking. Early intervention is crucial due to the impact of altered breathing patterns on the head, jaw, teeth, and posture. The program's main focus is to create a homeostatic environment for proper growth and development. Additionally, it contributes to overall well-being by addressing issues like sleep-disordered breathing. The comprehensive child development program aims to promote healthy orofacial development, prevent orthodontic relapse, and enhance children's overall health by working with their nervous system.
PAIN / TMJD MANAGEMENT
TMJ dysfunction is a condition that encompasses pain and dysfunction in the muscles and joints of the jaw. The main symptoms include pain, restricted movement, and noises from the joints during jaw movement. Although not life-threatening, it can severely impact one's quality of life when symptoms become chronic and hard to manage. Around 20% to 30% of adults experience this to some degree, more commonly in females aged 20 to 40. This program aims to correct muscle imbalances, breathing habits, and strengthen the systems that target inflammation, aiding in the healing process. Home remedies and stress reduction techniques are provided to offer additional benefits for overall well-being.
POST SURGERY AND BREATHING RETRAINING
A program designed around breathing retraining post ENT surgery is crucial to helping with sleep and reprogramming bad habits. Many people only breathe at a fraction of their full capacity, leading to decreased respiratory function and lower energy levels. Even with surgery, your bodily functions may still be programmed to breathe the way you used to, so it's important to reprogram this. Myofunctional therapy and exercises from the Buteyko Breathing Method are non-invasive, systematic approaches that can help retrain orofacial rest posture for optimal breathing and correct faulty breathing habits. By focusing on nasal breathing and improving respiratory function, this program can significantly enhance sleep quality and overall health, making it an essential component of post-surgery recovery and habit reprogramming.
